China's Proposed Art Museum Looks Like A Giant Stingray

Chinese architecture firm MAD has rolled out a new design for the Pingtang Art Museum.

Located on Pingtang island, this museum will mimic the stingray-like shape of the island itself and will have an area of over 40,000-square-meters.

This museum, which is part of China’s “Comprehensive Experimental Zone” project, will house all of the nation’s prized artifacts and will be part of a hub which serves to facilitate trade and cultural relations between Taiwan.

With its undulating design, the museum will connect to an undulating pier, making the design as organic as possible.
